Copper Aggregation for Small Business Networks

SX550X-24-K9-UK is a managed, non-PoE, Layer 2+ switch for small-business aggregation, with 20 dedicated 10 Gigabit Ethernet copper ports and four fixed copper/SFP+ combo uplinks. Each combo connection uses either copper or fiber, keeping the total at 24 active network ports rather than 28. The rack-mount 1U Cisco 550X Series model connects servers and network storage over copper while retaining fiber connections for access-switch aggregation. Its fixed uplink architecture has no removable network-module bay. The discontinued SX550X-24F-K9-UK instead carries 20 dedicated 10G SFP+ ports for fiber-based connections. This 24-port 10GBase-T stackable managed switch requires separately powered endpoints because its network ports do not supply PoE.

Technical Details

480 Gbps switching capacity accommodates the switch's network interfaces, while 240 Mpps forwarding specifies performance with 64-byte packets. Static routing and RIP v2 provide inter-VLAN routing; PBR directs selected traffic, and VRRP v2/v3 supports redundant default gateways. The IPv4 table accommodates 7168 routes. SX550X-24-K9-UK includes 512 MB of DRAM and 256 MB of flash for operation and image storage. A dynamically shared 3 MB packet buffer serves traffic across the ports rather than reserving a separate allocation for each connection. STP, RSTP and MSTP provide spanning-tree control, while LACP supports aggregated links. A dedicated Gigabit management connection separates administrative connectivity from the network ports. Maximum consumption of 124.6W supplies a sizing figure for the electrical load without an endpoint-power allocation. Four operating fans and one redundant fan provide active cooling; this is not a fanless switch.

Ordering

ORM Systems offers SX550X-24-K9-UK in new sealed and certified refurbished conditions, with up to a 3-year extended warranty on new orders and up to 1 year on certified refurbished orders. Certified refurbished units are inspected and bench-tested for power-on and POST, rated-speed links on every port, clean boot, optics bay recognition, PSU status and fan status; firmware is verified and configurations are wiped to factory default. Specify the condition, quantity and required connection accessories on the purchase order; returns are available for 30 days on every condition, with terms applying. PO accepted, Net-30 for government and RMA with advance replacement support enterprise and volume purchasing, with regional stock and RMA across the UK, EU, US and MEA.

Buying Notes

Buying NotesKey Specs

Software maintenance has ended

SX550X-24-K9-UK requires a maintenance plan that does not depend on further Cisco bug-fix releases: software maintenance ended July 30, 2023. The current migration destination is C1300-24XT, through the discontinued CBS350-24XT-UK.

Specify connection accessories separately

Fiber and direct-attach connections require explicit accessory selection: SFP-10G-SR supports multimode fiber, SFP-10G-LR supports single-mode fiber, and SFP-H10GB-CU1M provides a 1 m copper direct-attach connection. Match the remote interface before ordering.

Existing Hardware Replacement

When replacing an installed SG550XG-24T-K9-UK, the original switch's Cisco support ended June 30, 2025. SX550X-24-K9-UK is its named replacement, but is itself discontinued. Treat the purchase as an existing-network replacement: verify the saved configuration, interface assignments and required accessories before specifying the replacement order.

Existing Stack Expansion

When adding another member to an existing 550X stack, the family supports ring or chain connections and a maximum of 400 ports managed as one system. Allocate interconnect interfaces before counting usable endpoint connections, then specify the topology, cable lengths and member configuration on the purchase order.

Jumbo Frame Validation

When staging storage or server connections that require larger frames, the switch supports frames up to 9000 bytes. Validate the intended frame size across the connected equipment rather than assuming every device uses the same setting. Record the tested configuration and required connection media before approving the purchase order.

Not Suitable If

PoE power for connected endpoints

The network ports supply no endpoint power. C1300-24P-4X provides 24 Gigabit PoE ports and four 10G SFP+ uplinks, but changes copper downlinks from 10G to Gigabit.

Twenty-four copper connections plus fiber uplinks

Four SFP+ connections share their interfaces with four copper ports. Using all four fiber connections leaves 20 copper connections, not 24 copper connections plus additional uplinks.

Cisco service beyond July 2027

Cisco service ends July 31, 2027. C1300-24XT is the current migration destination; the intermediate CBS350-24XT-UK is discontinued and ended sale October 29, 2024.
